Hi Dave,

It seems that our boy Dennis has quite a few accomplishments to his credit. According to IMDB he pioneered the use of wireless microphones and sound equalization within the industry (motion pictures), and was the first sound mixer to engineer a digital motion picture sound track. He fathered a number of children all of whom are in the audio field. Tell me why does someone of his age with all those accomplishments then become a second boom operator on a recent film (2006). I couldn't even get on a boom if I wanted to. Oh Dennis, oh Dennis, where is my promised ceramic coffee mug? More stories to come.
